Rivertrees Country Inn

Rivertrees Country Inn

Rivertrees Country Inn is located in northern Tanzania, just outside the bustling safari town of Arusha. It looks out toward Mount Kilimanjaro and is ideally situated for exploring this region’s abundant nature reserves.

The inn is a charming country estate once a coffee farm and retains the nostalgic air of a well-loved homestead. Sprawling ten acres of fertile greenery, the grounds are a natural extension of Mt Maseru’s slope foothills and offer a sanctuary for the birds and wildlife indigenous to the area.

Elegantly rustic cottages are dotted along the river and in thickets of tall trees, while lush lawns and birdsong make for a peaceful and picturesque setting. Set in the heart of an area rich in nature reserves, montane forests, and vibrant village culture, the scope for exploration is endless.

The restaurant concocts tasty meals with garden-fresh ingredients, old family recipes, oven-fired pizzas, and the best of the region’s locally grown coffees. Delicious candle-lit dinners are served by the warmth of the fireplace or under the stars and the watchful eyes of resident owls.

Rivertrees combines unpretentious comfort with subtle accents of style to create a timeless pause in a journey and a sense of warmth and genuine welcome.

Because Rivertrees grew in stages, each cottage was designed with individual thought and care and furnished with unique attention. The design makes the most of the riverine nooks, bends, and clearings in leafy groves to grant each dwelling a sense of privacy and peace.
